Hour three begins with Roc sparking a debate on the current state of sports media, arguing that launching a podcast does not automatically make someone a qualified journalist or influencer, and offering his critique of how modern sports programs are managed. The conversation then shifts to college hoops as the crew revisits eye-opening comments from Arizona State men’s basketball coach Bobby Hurley in yesterday’s postgame press conference following the Sun Devils’ loss to West Virginia, discussing whether a mid-season coaching change is warranted or if Hurley should consider stepping away on his own. Later, NFL Radio host on SiriusXM and CardsWire contributor Howard Balzer joins the show on the Right Toyota Guest Line to provide his perspective on the Arizona Cardinals’ head coaching vacancy, including why the job is widely viewed as one of the league’s toughest openings, the ongoing uncertainty at quarterback, and what the organization must do to secure the right hire. The hour wraps with Lerner & Rowe “One Call That’s All,” featuring ESPN draft analyst Matt Miller sharing his take on Miami Hurricanes quarterback Carson Beck and his prospects at the next level.
